Optimize web performance through network protocols, resource loading, and browser rendering internals. Use when the user mentions "my site is slow", "Core Web Vitals", "HTTP/2 or HTTP/3", "resource hints", "network latency", "render blocking", "TCP/TLS optimization", "service worker", "Cache-Control or caching strategy", or "critical rendering path". Also trigger when diagnosing slow page loads, optimizing time to first byte, choosing between WebSocket and SSE, or reducing bundle sizes. For UI visual performance, see refactoring-ui.

# High Performance Browser Networking Framework

A systematic approach to web performance grounded in how browsers, protocols, and networks actually work. Apply these principles when building frontend applications, setting performance budgets, configuring servers, or diagnosing slow page loads.

## Core Principle

**Latency, not bandwidth, is the bottleneck.** Most web performance problems stem from too many round trips, not too little throughput. A 5x bandwidth increase yields diminishing returns; a 5x latency reduction transforms the user experience.

**The foundation:** Every request passes through DNS resolution, TCP handshake, TLS negotiation, and HTTP exchange before a single byte of content arrives — each step adding round-trip latency. High-performance applications minimize round trips, parallelize requests, and eliminate unnecessary network hops. Understanding the protocol stack is the prerequisite for meaningful optimization.

## Scoring

**Goal: 10/10.** Score by how many of the eight Quick Diagnostic rows pass, weighted toward the field metrics: **9-10** = all eight pass (the four field-metric rows in the green plus content-hashing, HTTP/2+, minimized render-blocking, and compression); **5-6** = the four field-metric rows pass but one or more transport/caching/compression rows fail; **<=3** = any field-metric row is in the red. Always report the score, which diagnostic rows failed, and the specific fix for each.
